Melee weapon & hand strike

If a minion uses a melee weapon, can it uses a hand strike to increase his weapon damage ?? example : with a weapon "hand strike" or Bang Nak (" +2 hand damage with each strike") + Undead Strength -- Michel BRIAND Toulouse, FRANCE media...@calva.net

He can also boost the melee weapon's damage with melee weapon damage modifiers (like Undead Strength, which states explicitly that it can be used as either a bossted hand strike or a boosted melee weapon strike) -- L.

Cards such as Burning Wrath could not modify it, though, and indeed are strikes to themselves, so could not be used with melee weapons. Wallpaper Paste for all those useless cards

Can Torn Signpost be combined with a weapon? What about Wolf Claws? -- ________________ "There's nary an animal ______ ___@^^^^\ / \ that can out run a / \ @ \_____/ David Schwartz \____greased_Scotsman!"____/ > (^^^^^\ _______ ___/ \---\ / \ da...@schwartz.manawatu.gen.nz / \_____________/ \__________________________________/

If a weapon deals damage based on base hand damage, the it will be based on the new hand damage amount. If you use a simple hand strike (for the new amount), then you may change all of that damage to aggravated via Claws. -- L.
